Hmm... It's a high-priced mask pack where it's difficult to find advantages. I really don't understand why it's so expensive...
ConsThe mask sheet is extremely thick. When I tried to absorb the remaining essence by applying it to my neck, it didn't absorb and pilled like dead skin cells. Immediately after removing the mask sheet, my face felt very tight. It's as if I applied glue to my face and it's drying?

The SK2 mask product really irritates me. I wrote this with an angry heart.) There's nothing. There were no good points. I tried it because I received it as a gift, but it's definitely not a product I'd buy with my own money. You know how annoying it is when expensive food tastes bad? That's exactly what this SK2 mask is - a product that's not great but outrageously overpriced for its value, which is infuriating. I tried to find what's good about it on online shopping sites, but all I could find was 'That famous product everyone's talking about~#'.
ConsFirst off, it stung as soon as I applied it, and why is the sheet so poor quality? I mean, it's not even an organic cotton mask, so why is the sheet so thick and designed not to absorb into the skin? And the ingredients are terrible. Actually, everything about it is terrible. Water is the first ingredient, and it's full of parabens... Even the Pitera, which is a galactomyces ingredient, is present in the tiniest amount.. There are so many great skincare products with galactomyces in Korea, how dare they put so little and sell it at such a high price? Utterly shameless. The paraben preservatives... seriously. As you can see from the Hwahae ingredient search, but I'll write it again: Parabens are easily absorbed by the skin and can make the skin look good momentarily, but prolonged use can have significant side effects.. Side effects of parabens: When exposed to UV rays, they rapidly accelerate skin aging, causing age spots, wrinkles, and dark patches. They can also cause severe allergic skin reactions. The biggest problem is that they disrupt the endocrine system, negatively affecting female hormones, causing sperm deformities, prostate disorders, and have been linked to breast cancer development through research. This product is infuriating, haha. I'm so angry.
TipPro tip: Don't buy it! There are much better cosmetics in Korea.

ConsUnlike regular masks, this one is meant for removing impurities rather than absorption. The sheet is thicker than usual, so it doesn't adhere as closely to the face. It's not meant to be left on for too long, so I removed it after the recommended time. If you don't wipe your face afterward, it dries and peels off like dead skin cells. I'm not sure if my skin actually became cleaner after use, and it doesn't seem to provide much hydration either. A $1 mask might be better... Especially considering the wicked price of this one.
TipThere's a lot of product in the mask, so don't waste the leftover essence. You can save it and apply it with a cotton pad for a few more uses.

It's more effective than just applying essence for a few days. It's perfect for those important days when you need to look your best for photos.
ConsIt's a bit inconvenient that you have to cleanse your face after removing the mask, rather than just letting the product absorb.

It's the ultimate emergency treatment. While it's great as an evening mask, I've never found anything better as a pre-makeup mask. If only it weren't so expensive, I'd use it all the time. It instantly brightens and smooths your face, making your makeup last all day with a beautiful glow. Zero dryness! I use this for important events or when I need a full face of flawless makeup.
ConsThe biggest downside is definitely the price, and it's often out of stock. It's particularly challenging to find at duty-free shops. Also, it's crucial to wipe off the mask with a toner-soaked cotton pad afterward. Otherwise, it can pill like dried glue. If anyone's had a strange experience with this mask, it's probably because they didn't wipe it off. You must remove the slippery mask residue with a damp cotton pad. Don't try to pat it in for absorption after masking - that doesn't work! This extra step might be a bit bothersome for some...

It adheres cleanly and has a slightly rough texture rather than clinging to your face. After removing it, my skin feels hydrated and seems brighter, probably from drawing out impurities.
ConsThe scent is quite artificial. One thing to note: after removing the mask, don't try to absorb the remaining essence. Instead, wipe it off and then finish your skincare routine.

If only the price wasn't so steep, I'd love to keep using it indefinitely!
ConsExpensive. The thickness makes it prone to falling off. If you don't ensure proper absorption after use, it may cause your makeup to pill.
TipWhen used before makeup application, it can give a natural, dewy Inner Glow effect.

You can really feel the richness of the essence.
ConsI bought 6 more during a duty-free opportunity, but it's not a price I'd easily choose otherwise. For the cost, I don't feel it's dramatically amazing. As someone with very dry skin, I find it doesn't absorb well in winter.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe SK2 Pitera Essence is really great if you don't have any issues with fermented cosmetics. The amount of essence is very generous, so you can apply the leftover on your whole body after using it on your face.
ConsThe sheet mask material is both an advantage and a disadvantage. It's thick and can hold a lot of essence, but the adhesion is not as good, and the material itself can be slightly irritating to the skin. If you have contact dermatitis or don't do well with fermented products, you should avoid this. Also, if you don't follow up with additional skincare after absorbing the essence, your skin may feel a bit tight.
